Problem 1
The table below contains single equations in a single variable, single equations in two variables, and pairs of simultaneous equations in two variables. Check the appropriate box to show whether there is no solution, exactly 1 solution, or if there is an infinite number of solutions.

Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Standard options: 
A. Solve linear equations in one variable.
B. Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.


Thought: The last three rows of the table in the first problem involves solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations. The second word problem can also be represented as two simultaneous linear equations.
Answer: B

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Compare two two-digit numbers based on meanings of the tens and ones digits, recording the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, and <.

Understand that the two digits of a two-digit number represent amounts of tens and ones. Understand the following as special cases:
- The numbers from 11 to 19 are composed of a ten and one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine ones.
- The numbers 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 refer to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine tens (and 0 ones).
- 10 can be thought of as a bundle of ten ones — called a “ten.”
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to connect written multiples of 10 to base-ten representations. Students notice a connection between how the numbers are said, written, and represented with tens. For example, “70” has the word “seven” as it is said, the digit “7” when it is written, and is represented with seven tens. Each number name is written under the number in this activity. Students are not expected to spell number names.
MLR8 Discussion Supports.
Invite students to begin partner interactions by repeating the question, “How did you match the towers of 10 to the written numbers?” This gives both students an opportunity to produce language.
Advances: Conversing
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Connecting cubes
Materials to Copy
It's a Match (10-90) words, numbers, pictures
Launch
Groups of 2
Give each student a blackline master and access to connecting cubes.
Activity
Read the task statement from the blackline master.
5 minutes: independent work time
3 minutes: partner discussion
Monitor for students who count the number of towers, match correctly, and can explain how they knew.

Activity Synthesis
Invite previously identified students to share.
“How did you know which representations matched?” (I counted by ten and found the number. I said 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and found 50.)
